I generally just lurk around these parts but saw this thread so I'll add my $0.02. IoT (internet of things), aka machines talking to machines. I for one will bow to my skynet overlords one day and hope that they will see this post and spare me to a life of meaningless servitude. personally I'm in heavy with SWIR which has doubled in the past few months from my entry point at $20 but I still see plenty of room to keep going and think it could be a triple digit stock from here. Earnings from this past quarter in February will be telling. Do your due diligence! Good luck.

ahh...thanks...was worried there for a bit ;)

I generally only come here to lurk but found it 'interesting' that there is a political ad for gun background checks on the front page of Baseops.net; kinda makes me sad.

In light of this question- http://www.silencershop.com/shop/aac-evolution-9/ FYI-not affiliated nor did I buy one. Saving up for a Dillon 1050 first...

I don't come here to often any more and when I do I lurk but figured I had to show off my new baby and it's older sibling: The lowers are pretty much the same: AXTS Weapons SSA trigger BADASS 45 degree safety SLAP plate Magpul CTR and MIAD grip SBR: Vltor Mur1A upper Raptor CH BCM BCG Seekins MSVR 2 keymod rail BCM 11.5 standard barrel Gemtek Trek Aimpoint H1 Magpul MBUS It's older sibling is becoming a competition/3 Gun rifle and still needs a newer longer barrel but it is a BCM 16" middy with a VTAC alpha rail, Burris MTAC w/ a Warne Skel mount. Need to get out and zero everything. That is all...

Haven't been here in a bit but thought I'd let some of you know that we're trying to kick these gun grabbers out: http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/politics/recall-petition-for-state-senator-angela-giron-deemed-sufficient-by-secretary-of-state http://www.redstate.com/2013/06/18/morse-recall-supporters-clear-major-hurdle-in-colorado-recall-effort/ I helped with the Morse recall even though I'm in District 9 (near USAFA). First time ever being 'political.' I was just a foot soldier gathering petitions a few weekends but glad we pulled it off. Now I just hope we put up a strong candidate to finally remove him for good.

I have a Mossberg 930 for 3Gun and a 500 (with a side saddle) for HD along with my AR. Either way, put a light on it so you can see what you are aiming at. BTW, I personally believe if you are going to shoot an intruder in your house, shot to stop, not annoy--aka buckshot. This is what I have loaded (not my review...lol): (I don't have any kids so I'm not worried about other people in other rooms) As for the 930 shooting--great price and only issue I had is really really light birdshot. Any buck, slug and all 7 1/2 1100 fps+ birdshot cycles great. But I clean the crap out of it every time a shoot it and spray silicon spray on the piston. I have heard people having problems with the 930 so I go overboard but I haven't. The SPX is a good gun. Only mod I would recommend is getting an oversize safety to be able to find it fast when the pressure situation happens. (Both my 930 and 500 have them-easy to install). Of course throwing on a longer mag tube gives you more rounds (min has an 8 round mag tube).

Not in the game anymore myself but that it just haunting. Video here: http://jalopnik.com/deadly-afghan-plane-crash-caught-by-dash-cam-in-this-ho-485974117

This is why i bought a cheap FOSCAM that can motion detect and send me emails direct to my iphone. Also using the iPhone app I can to talk through the camera and let anybody in the house know, "Hey %^&*, I've called the cops, get the $%^&*( out!" Safe + security camera better than just safe. (IMHO)

What barrel/comp is that?

Springfield Armory 5.25 9mm Mossberg 930 SPX converted for 3Gun (welded lifter, extended magtube, XS sights) Custom AR (BCM 16 middy upper with SSA trigger)--plan up upgrading that to an 18" rifled system down the road

Mostly lurk here but thought I would through this up from my match last weekend if anybody is ever interesting in shooting 3Gun

I already had about 20 PMAGs but bought another 5 windowed versions just out of principle. The largest (I believe) gun shop in Co Springs has also talked about moving out. Think a gutted Walgreens Pharmacy full of guns. It's not my favorite place but they do have selection. I hope they do move too. "readily convertible" = illegal in CO. So every 10 Round PMAG is also illegal along with most other magazines: http://youtu.be/2sMhECnrNYQ

You beat me to it. While I like it, as a exercise in thinking two steps down the road: 1. Private FFLs would not do it unless they were reimbursed. 2. You could set up an FFL check at local DMVs and let the State or Fed handle funding. Both parties come in (w/o the gun) do the check, depart the area and trade/sell the gun(s). 2a. the 4473 would have to be adjusted as nobody is logging a gun in then out. 2b. there would be no record, just a check of criminal background history and legality of owning a firearm 2bi hell you could do this to check on your new live in nanny and I bet more people would use it for that than firearm transfers but it would be nice to have that ability to check someone out 2bii I get great thoughts when loading my shotgun. Instead of both parties having to be there, they could individually walk in and do the check. They would receive a form indicating the check was complete and a code could be given. Each party could swap codes and call them into an automated phone number where it would advise of the check's outcome. Computers and science could solve it but if it is like DTS then nobody would use it. Let Apple develop it! I have bought plenty of guns online from dealers, gunbroker and internet gun forums. I have also bought from people who frequent a local gun forum that has a trading post. I showed my CCW, he showed me his. Boom, checks complete, sell complete, good to meet ya, say "hi" on the forums some time. The chances that some gangbanger is kicking back, listening to Bones Thug-N-Harmony while smoking his medical MJ and surfing my local trading post looking to buy a Glock is about as realistic as some of the stats I've seen today. I wouldn't mind seeing the option that busdriver and helodude formulated but likewise it costs $$... I did the homework for him, just bumping this down to the next page in case anybody goes straight there.

Next you'll tell me that 40% of firearm are purchased without a background check? http://www.nationalr...-myth-john-lott I find it odd that so many NRA members want UBGCs and yet I have never met one. Gosh, those USPSA matches I go to where there are ton of shooters who have NRA stickers on their cars must be lying to my face. I have to seriously question a poll that says one thing, yet the facts on the ground show the opposite is true. Again, a reality vs theory issue. I generally lurk around here and think you play devils advocate just for an exercise in mental juggling but sometimes you just blow my mind. Ok, found what you are referencing: 38. Do you support or oppose requiring background checks for all gun buyers? Tot Rep Dem Ind Men Wom Wht Blk Hsp Support 92% 89% 96% 92% 90% 94% 92% 95% 91% Oppose 7 9 3 7 9 5 7 5 8 DK/NA 1 2 1 1 1 1 1 - 1 So I guess the CO legislature just blew you stats out of the water. Not a single ® voted for universal BGCs. hmm.... Just as an FYI 67.2% of statistics are made up BS! Well, gotta go practice loading my shotgun...Noveske 3G match coming soon and I have to figure how my short butt is going to load quickly while poking out a sunroof. but "I'll be back!"

Custom order. They get what they want. I agree, needs forward cant. The ejection port cut out was a new one for me.

Heat the kydex in the oven. Depending on the thickness of the kydex around 300-350 degrees. Get it any hotter and you'll burn it. then sandwich it with the gun (note; put in the magazine in the gun with polymer framed guns) outside is two sheets of plywood, mayo/mustard is two pieces of foam, then the kydex with the gun in the middle. smash it with 4 clamps. let it sit 15-18 minutes to cool-presto easy peasy

Woooo dude. I don't come here that often and when I do I mostly lurk but I'm jumping in here. So let me get this straight, you throw out a news article and tell me that I'm in an 8% minority and then say that NRA members also overwhelming support background checks all within the same line of text. Please let it be heard I am an NRA member and don't support universal background checks. All the NRA members that I hang with, shoot with and know, don't support universal background checks. Would you like to know why....because they're are the ones that I hang out with are educated on the subject AND we loan each other our guns on occasion. Last week I made a kydex holster form my O-6 Department Head (hey, I know I'm kissing ass here). Borrowed his Glock 17 for a week and turned out this for him: Made this for an AMT here at the zoo: (note shameless plug if you are in C Springs and want a holster) Guess what, borrowing his gun to mold the kydex=illegal in CO soon. My buddy has some free time and wants to borrow my AR so he can take his kid shooting in the woods=illegal now. So I know what you are thinking, "oh, well, you'll have to give up your little side business hobby so that rest of us can live in a safe society." As a former LEO, let me educate you a bit about how criminals work: THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT LAWS! The problem with this very slippery slope is that we used to live in a society where you were innocent until proven guilty. While I have no issues with background checks when I'm buying from a store and they don't know me, selling a gun to a friend who I've known from years, or someone from my local shooting forums who has a CCW permit and is vouched for is reversing that philosophy. Now, I must presume all my friends, coworkers, fellow USPSA, IDPA shooters as guilty until they are proven innocent at our cost and our time. Dems are winning the catch phrase war. Universal BCG is easy to say, but impossible to enforce. Theory, meet reality; reality, meet theory. Guess who wins. automobile...that took about 1/2 second to think of! house, depending on location...took me 2 seconds to think of that (if you need me to explain that too you, feel free to ask) This is a pie in the sky double speak. Did the Aurora shooter pass a BCG-yup. Did the mom of the Newton shooter pass a BCG-yup. I will say that the database should be more accurate, more up to date but BCG would not have prevented the above tragedies. Making private citizens jump through hoops won't solve this. MIND BLOWN!!! There is a huge difference between having laws that are not enforceable and the fact that criminals don't obey laws. I loan friend gun so he can go shoot. No BCG done. He gets pulled over. "Sir any weapons in the car." "Why yes, officer, I have a handgun in the trunk, I'm going to the range." "I the weapon yours?" "Yes officer." "move along, move along" aka no ability to verify if the gun belongs to you, no ability to enforce Option two (no gun) Cop pulls you over, "License and registration" "Yes officer, actually officer, the car isn't mine." "Really, who's is it?" "It's a friend's. He is letting me borrow it while mine is in the shop." Cop verifies that registration and license are different. "Do you have the contact information for the owner." "Yes officer it is......" Car theft, it's enforceable. Option three You piss me off. I punch you in the nose with witnesses. You call 911 You tell officer I punched you in the nose Witnesses agree Assault, it's enforceable WITHOUT REGISTRATION THIS IS PIE IN THE SKY. Ask Canada, UK, Australia how that registration worked out for them... This is why most Sheriffs in CO won't go along with this BS: http://www.humanevents.com/2013/03/19/colorado-sheriffs-rebel-against-new-gun-control-laws/

CO Senate Judiciary Committe on various anti 2A laws audio feed: http://coloradoga.granicus.com/MediaPlayer.php?publish_id=5

From a CO shooting forum I visit (thank goodness it's a slow day at the office) someone suggested: Since HB13-1224 is the only one related to out of staters, I have started to send the note below off to out of staters: Here is the gov's facebook page, tell him to veto HB13-1224... http://www.facebook....ohnHickenlooper I agree, boycotting CO won't make enough of an impact that the (D)s who want this will notice but I do believe it is the principle that matters in this situation. Any non-CO residents want to voice their opinion, the Gov's Facebook thingy (whatever that is) would be a good place to post civil disagreement.

As a CO resident now, I appreciate Brick's stance. As a CO resident I will stay and put in the good fight and ask all those in Colofornia to stay too but if you don't live here, don't spend your hard money in a state that is against freedom. Will this hurt our economy if you don't come here. Probably not. If you are thinking about a vacation to CO and are Pro 2A and decide against, sure write our local reps and let them know this but those that voted for this crap won't care. For instance I have been emailing all the CO reps against this junk legislation almost daily. I received a response for someone in favor of the legislation that stated, and I'm going to paraphrase here, 'you are not in my district so I don't have to respond to you but since you asked I will vote for the legislation.' My rep never responded. Will the FUDS who want to come here to hunt once a year with their bolt action hunting rifles still come. Sure they will. Not much I can do about it. But this will hurt 3 Gun in our state. The Noveske 3G will happen this April in CO but after that, it won't happen any more (I talked with the Match Director about this very thing). This is a National level match with people from all around coming in. Nobody wants to shoot 10 round ARs in a competition. Magpul should leave and take their money with them. The "Ops Amendment" as some CO ®s called is a perfect example of the (D)s lack of intestinal fortitude. They want Magpul's money, just make sure they ship those 30 rounders to other states. Overall, very sick about the subject. This was just more of a rant but again, thanks Brick for your stance.

My wife used to carry it. We still keep it around for when we take the dog for a walk and we just stuff it in the jacket pocket but the trigger pull was harsh and the recoil wasn't very enjoyable. If it isn't fun to shoot, you won't practice. She upgraded to a Kahr CM9 which for a bigger round had less recoil. 10% of the time she belt carries but the rest of the time she purse carries so size doesn't matter...STS.

Can't see to find the justification for on/off duty. Any help....must share! Thanks

The best part: "You can't give more ammo to the criminals" ehhh....my logic sucked worse than his, proving higher thinking and eating a steak for dinner should not be accomplished at the same time. Anyway...he is a dumbass.
